Multi-Mount Continuous Monitor

Installation, Operation and Maintenance

Description

Leading companies use continuous monitors as a 

cost effective component in satisfying the paragraph 

6.1.3 Compliance Verification Plan requirements 

of ANSI/ESD S20.20.  The Desco Multi-Mount 

Continuous Monitor continuously monitors the integrity 

of one operator.  This monitor will provide virtually 

instantaneous notification of static control equipment 

failures, eliminating the need of periodic testing and 

costly record keeping.  This unit is highly cost effective 

as it is designed to monitor any conventional single wire 

wrist strap and ground cord system.  Its small package 

and mounting tabs with holes make it highly suitable to 

install on most any equipment or work bench surface.  

In addition, optional mounting is available using the 

provided adhesive-backed Velcro

®

 strips.  Using either 

mounting method makes the Multi-Mount Monitor 

suitable for most any machinery or workbench even in 

hard to reach locations.
The Multi-Mount Continuous Monitor is a real time 

instrument that ensures that critical ESD generators in a 

sensitive area are effectively grounded.  The instant an 

operator’s wrist strap or cord fails, the monitor will issue 

audible and visual (LEDs) alarms alerting the user and 

supervisor of the problem.
All Desco single-wire monitors with wave distortion 

technology include the Park Snap feature.  Use the 

Park Snap to store the operator’s wrist cord and enable 

standby mode while the operator is away from the 

workstation.  Before disconnecting the coil cord from 

the wristband, the operator touches the Park Snap to 

disable the audio alarm for 6 seconds.  Within the 6 

second period, the operator can disconnect their wrist 

cord from their wristband and attach it to the Park Snap 

before the audible alarm sounds.

Calibration Unit, for Wave Distortion Monitors

WAVE DISTORTION DETECTION TECHNOLOGY 

PROVIDES TRUE 100% CONTINUOUS 

MONITORING

From all the technical alternatives available, Desco 

has chosen wave distortion technology for many of its 

Continuous Monitor product offerings.  Wave distortion 

circuitry monitors current/voltage phase shifts and 

provides true 100% continuous monitoring.  Electrical 

current will lead voltage at various points due to the 

combinations of resistance and capacitive reactance.  

By monitoring these “distortions” or phase shifts, the 

wave distortion Multi-Mount Continuous Monitor will 

reliably determine if the circuit is complete.
Wave distortion technology can be referred to “vector 

impedance monitoring”.  This description is valid as the 

wave distortion technology measures the impedance 

at the monitored banana jack and looks for changes 

in either the capacitance or resistance of the circuit 

which includes the wrist strap and its wearer.  It uses 

filtering and time domain sampling to filter out false 

signals caused by voltage offsets, 60 Hz fields and other 

electro-magnetic and electrostatic interference.
In normal factory environments, and with persons 

whose capacitance with respect to ground is within 

design limits (5 feet tall 90 pound person to 6 foot 5 

inch 250 pound person), the Multi-Mount Continuous 

Monitor cannot be “fooled”.  It will provide a reliable 

alarm only when the wrist strap becomes dysfunctional 

or unsafe according to accepted industry standards.  

The Multi-Mount Continuous Monitor is drift-free and 

designed to be insensitive to the effects of squeezing or 

stretching the coil cord.
